Dr. Stone is the BEST math teacher I have ever had. She teaches the material clearly and is very open with taking questions, not only during class but in her office hours. Yes, there is a lot of homework, but if you do it, and understand it, you WILL PASS.

At the beginning of the semester I was intimidated by Dr. Stone; she has a loud, assertive voice and I didn't know what to expect. But she is super sweet and teaches well and is always open to answer questions or hold office hours. Homework isn't for a grade but it is pretty much mandatory to practice the things learned in class. Best prof yet!

Dr. Stone is the best professor I have ever had. She is clear when teaching, gives reasonable homework that is helpful, and her tests are fair and represent what we have actually been taught in class. She holds study sessions the night before her test that she leads herself. Super helpful, organized & professional professor. Take her!

Shes gives a lot of homework( its optional, not graded) if you do all the homework you will be prepared for the test. She is an amazing teacher and explains the math very well. If you skip class you might get really confused. Her tests are made of problems exactly like the homework and study guides, so work those problems and you should do great!

Dr. Stone can be scary at first, however you probably won't pass this class if you take it from someone other than her (take it from me, I tried). She knows the material 100% and since she's the coordinator for this section, she knows what's gonna be on the test. Neither class nor homework is mandatory, but you won't pass without effort in both.

I liked her enough. I had an A in her class going into the final (which is uniform), and ended up getting a B in the class. Let me just say, that the final was harder than the material we saw on any of the 5 tests. The final was 30% of our grade, so that hurt. All in all, you probably have to take this course, so you might as well take it from her.

Dr. Stone gives very clear lectures, however there are some things that are infuriating. Get used to hearing "we don't use calculators in my class" and "you're just going to have to memorize this." You will not get partial credit or points back on questions you missed do to technical errors even if you were 100% right in your work. "Tough luck."

probably one of the worst teachers to have in a pandemic. Emails are rude and unhelpful, you basically have to teach yourself the material with no real wiggle when it comes to grades.

She is an amazing and caring professor. As long as you watch her lectures and take notes, youll do fine. If you dont understand material, she provides tutoring hours. Also, you can get ahead in her class. Take exams 48 hours before theyre due and youll get EC. She does give out a lot of HW, but its beneficial in the long run.
